Welcome to our documentation site! | ||
Carbon aware software does more when it can leverage greener energy sources, and less when the energy CO2 emissions are higher. | ||
|
||
A blog post folder can be convenient to co-locate blog post images: | ||
The Carbon Aware SDK is a toolset to help you measure the carbon emissions of your software, in turn helping you **measure and reduce your software's carbon emissions**, and choose when and where you run your software to make it greener. | ||

|
||
The blog supports tags as well! | ||
|
||
**And if you don't want a blog**: just delete this directory, and use `blog: false` in your Docusaurus config. | ||
By knowing the carbon emissions of the energy that powers your applications, you and your organisation can leverage greener energy sources to reduce your CO2 emissions by: | ||
|
||
* Building AI models when carbon emissions are lower | ||
* Deploying software into the cloud in locations that have greener energy sources | ||
* Running software updates at greener energy time windows | ||
* Using data to run hypothetical models to understand how you could start driving impact and reduce emissions, drive business cases for change, and create a greener future. | ||
|
||
Within the [Green Software Foundations Theory of Change](https://greensoftware.foundation/articles/theory-of-change), we look at 3 pillars, that being **Knowledge**, **Tech Culture**, and **Tooling** as focus areas to drive this change. The Carbon Aware SDK at its core sits firmly in the **Tooling** pillar, and also supports the other pillars, providing **Knowledge** through emissions data to inform change, and being core enabler for the **Tech Culture** for building carbon aware software. | ||
|
||
Companies including UBS and Vestas have already deployed the Carbon Aware SDK to build greener software, and you can too! | ||
